9/10
Very curious how she compares to the Timeless 95 Butch. I think I will save all year and do a big dip next year’s Black Friday with lots and lots of shaving goodies!!• RazoRock SS .84 GC SB. (New razor).
• Bic Chrome Platinum razor (2).
• Pre Shave with olive oil bar soap.
• Sterling Noir shaving soap.
• Omega Boar.
• Stirling Noir balm and after shave.
• WitchHazel splash for post shave.
This rainy post Thanksgiving Saturday morning shave again featured the RazoRock .84 Gamechanger SB along with a Bic blade (2). I received a new line of Noir products from Sterling Soap and really enjoyed them, especially the aroma. Nice, but not overwhelming….
The Gamechanger is especially smooth yet efficient, (perhaps just slightly less so than the .95 razors). A compact razor that fits nicely around hard to reach areas and that handle sticks to my hand like Velcro.
The judge detected a slight reddish area just below the middle of my lower lip, but shame on the user for getting way too cocky and stepping on the gas as well as over pressing the razor. This razor still requires respect of the fundamentals or else she will nip at you. What a fun razor to use! The judge is awarding a solid 9 today while wishing all of you a very happy Post Thanksgiving weekend and hoping your team(s) win!

Razor: Wolfman WR2 SS SB 1.15 with TiBam antiqued Titanium handle
Blade:. Gillette Nacet (1)
Post-Shave: Cold water splash, Thayers Witch Hazel and Aloe (lemon scent), Lucky Tiger Face Tonic
AS: Ogallala Bay Rum Double Strength afteshave splash
Day 3 with COVID...thanks be to God it's leaving...what a trip. Great shave! Liking this Nacet blade...a lot! Paired extremely well with the WR2. Smooth and sharp. DFS/BBS with no blood. Went back to Stirling Bay Rum for this shave and wanted a strong aftershave with a scent that lingers. Testing my dulled sense of smell. This is a brand new brush...arrived yesterday. It's a tad floppy for me...however...among all of the synthetics I own, this one holds moisture the best. I was shocked how wet it still felt after I squeezed it out. It whipped up a shiny, slick lather pretty quickly. I find that Stirling beef tallow soaps need a little more moisture to get a proper lather and this brush's ability to retain it helped.
Happy Shaves, Everyone!

Exactly the same as my experience. Good sign.Thanks. First day with 102 fever and body aches was the worst. Now it's just a head cold that's quickly making it's way out.
Hoping you’re better soon, @JCarr
